1372.0. "VRE01 with Atari ST" by EICMFG::SCHOENING (IEEE-488 /SBC Marketing Digital PCS Systemtechnik Munich) Sun Jul 11 1993 09:12

    
    Hello All,
    
    I just got a good deal from DEC Germany Used Equipment sold me
    a VXT1000 with a 18" Flatscreen (VRE01).
    
    All what I know from my X-Terminal knowledge is that the VRE01 is a:
    
    18" Plasma flatscreen
    1024 x 768 pixel resolution
    60Hz refresh rate
    
    Now my question to all Workstation - and Terminal Specialists.
    
    	Is it possible to hook up the VRE01 to my ATARI ST ?
    	Is the monitor a multisync ?
    	Does someone has the technical specs from the VRE01 ?
    	Do I have to include a VGA bridge into my ST with a VGA
    	board to connect the monitor ?
    	
    	Any other ideas what I could do with the monitor in combination
    	with my ST ?     I'm far away to buy a FALCON.
    
    	
    Thanx for your replies in advance, I count on you .
    
    With binary regards 
    
    George

1372.1VRE01 Horiz Freq = 54KHz...FAILTE::ROBSONBWed Jul 14 1993 15:5412
    
    I am not a terminal specialist, but looking at a STARS article
    regarding a description of the VXT1000, indications are that the
    VRE01 monitor has a 54KHz horizontal scan frequency.
    I believe that Atari high resolution mode frequency is in the region
    of 35KHz, so it may not be possible to "plug in and go" with this
    configuration.
    
    I am sorry I am not sure what adapters may be available, but would be
    interested also to hear if this configuration could be made to work.
